2014 Ford Galaxy 2.0L Diesel · EN14 AEE

The vehicle passed the 2025‑08‑01 MOT at 141,439 miles, with rear inner brake pads wearing thin both sides, indicating brake wear but no structural defects; overall roadworthiness is currently compliant, though ongoing brake maintenance is required. Mileage shows a steady increase from 48,665 miles in the 2017 test to 141,439 miles in the 2025 test, averaging about 11,787 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a 12‑year‑old Galaxy and reflects consistent annual use rather than long standing periods. The repeated headlamp failures on both sides in 2021 and 2024 point to possible wiring or bulb quality issues that should be examined, while the thin rear brake pads at 141,439 miles suggest the rear suspension bushes and brake discs may be approaching service limits; a buyer should inspect rear brake pad thickness, caliper movement, and suspension bush condition, and verify headlamp wiring and bulb integrity. Structural rust was noted on the inside edge of both rear tyres in 2019, indicating potential corrosion on the rear wheel arches or chassis; a visual inspection of the rear subframe and wheel arch liners is advisable, and the binding rear brakes flagged in 2025 merit a close check of brake caliper slides and disc wear.
